Hi, Im Baxter!<br/><br/>Life didnt start out easy for me. I came from a pretty unsanitary situation before Atlanta Humane rescued me and showed me what kindness feels like. Im still learning how to be a dog and trust people, but underneath my cautious side is a heart thats so ready to love. Once I feel safe, youll see how sweet and affectionate I can be!<br/><br/>Im most confident when I have another dog buddy around. They help me learn and remind me that the world isnt such a scary place. Id do best with a patient family who understands that I just need a little time to settle in. In return, I promise to give you all the love Ive been saving up. I cant wait to run, play, and just enjoy being a happy dog, especially with another canine friend by my side!<br/><br/>I qualify for Welcome Trial.
